Wendy Shay revealed that she lost her dad at the age of 2 years and her mom moved to Germany after the death of her death and then she then joined her mom with her sister later on there. She started Grade 7 (JHS1) in Germany and had the rest of her education there and is a trained nurse.

Speaking to Abeiku Santana on how she got the name ‘Shay’, she disclosed that she fell in love with a character from a kids Tv series ‘iCarly’ as the main character was known as Carly Shay who is known in real life as Miranda Cosgrove, an American actress, singer, and songwriter.

According to Wendy, growing up as a child in Germany, she watched lots of kid series so she could easily pick up the German Language and she was always watching the episodes of ‘iCarly’ and she loved the character, reason why she ‘stole’ her last name Shay to add to hers—Wendy Shay.

Top Ghanaian Artiste – Sarkodie

Mr. Michael Owusu Addo. Obidi aka Sark aka money no be problem. First of all considering the fact that he isn’t yet thirty years and where his humble beginnings were, I’ve got to give some credit to this dude. He started out as a hard hitting rapper with deadly punchlines, the boy who just wanted to rap.

However over the years, whether by default or on purpose, Mr. Michael Owusu Addo has turned into quite a brand which we all know as Sarkodie with a rising value. With the total number of awards and nominations on the local and international scene hitting the 70’s and counting, you will assume he should rank higher but not in my list (afterall me na me kura platform no, me na me kasa yetie).

For crying out loud he has 3 albums, that isn’t something I should be excited about. He made it on my list because he has put Ghana on the map whether you like him or not. He seemed to have meandered his way through the crowd to become the forerunner precisely, the colour party Lieutenant of the Azonto Revolution.

Clearly because Ghana as well as many African countries don’t have a music industry, it’s difficult to stay true to oneself by choosing substance over form. I believe he’s compromised the quality he used to deliver because he’s become commercial. I have huge respect for him.

My favourite album of his is Rapperholic. I really don’t think he can beat that album. My little piece of advice? Take a little break and find yourself and deliver a quality album.
